📖About ArmoredElytra

If you have a problem with this plugin, please contact me either via PM, Discord, or the discussion section before / instead of leaving a review first! Not (only) because I don't like bad reviews for things I can and will fix/add quickly, but primarily because it is simply much easier to communicate via any one of those ways than via the review section!

This is a very simple plugin that allows you to combine an elytra with a chest plate in a smithing table (or an anvil, if configured).

Smithing Table Input View

The result will be an armored elytra.
Armored elytras offer the same amount of protection as a diamond chest plate and they can have the same enchantments as well. This means that you can add protection, fire protection etc to the armored elytra as well.

By default, you can only see the elytra when a player wears an armored elytra. However, you will be able to see both the armor and the elytra at the same time if you install THIS Fabric mod on the client!

List of features:

  • Combine an elytra with any type of chest plate armor to create an armored elytra! It will have the same amount of armor as the type of armor it was combined with!
  • Supports enchantments.
  • Configurable list of allowed enchantments (and curses).
  • Configurable repair cost.
  • Permissions for giving / wearing / crafting different tiers of armored elytras.
  • Add enchantments using enchanted books.
  • Receive notification when the plugin is out-of-date.
  • Permissions support.
  • Configurable messages, elytra names and elytra lores.
  • Uninstaller for when you no longer want to use this plugin.

I am always looking to improve upon this plugin, so if you have any tips, ideas or requests, let me know! I'll be happy to help!

NOTE: Armored elytras will remain in the world even after uninstalling this plugin, please use the uninstall feature if you want to uninstall this plugin.
NOTE2: By default, this plugin checks if there are any updates available. If the version you are using is found to be outdated, you will receive a message in the console (and upon logging in if you have the armoredelytra.admin permission node). The update checking can be disabled in the config file.

If you encounter a bug or a problem, please contact me first before leaving a review, then I'll try my hardest to fix it as soon as possible.

If you like this plugin, please don't forget to let me know in the review section, it really does help me keep motivated to provide support for this plugin!

armoredelytra.wear.

Uninstalling this plugin:

If you decide you no longer want to use this plugin, simply removing the ArmoredElytra.jar from your plugins directory will not get rid of any Armored Elytras on your server. Instead, you should enable the uninstall feature of this plugin in the config.
The way this feature works is by checking player inventories upon login and chest inventories when they are accessed and removing any Armored Elytras it can find. This means that you will need to keep this plugin installed to keep it uninstalled... Though it won't affect server performance much, if at all, as pretty much the entire plugin is disabled while in uninstall mode.
